At the Second World War Zone Command, the staff officer rushed into Chief Yan's office with a telegram in his hand and a complicated mood.

When he rushed to the door, he was almost knocked to the ground.

Chief Yan immediately had a very bad premonition in his mind, and he frowned and asked, "Is there news from the front line, so anxious!" ”

"Commander Wise!"

The chief of staff subconsciously replied after a sycophant.

"The results were so unexpected!"

"Unexpected? Could it be that Linfen City was taken by the Japanese? Chief Yan frowned and analyzed.

Then he shook his head and said to himself: "It shouldn't be~ The style of the Eighth Route Army is to never fight uncertain battles~"

"Even the air defense forces have been pulled out, they must be ready to defend Linfen to the death, and they should not be taken by the Japanese so soon!"

"Linfen City has not been taken!" The chief of staff immediately replied.

"Not only was it not taken, but the Japanese army that attacked Linfen City suffered heavy losses! Not to mention anything else, in one afternoon this day, six planes were dropped alone! ”

"In my impression, except for guarding Taiyuan City back then, the Japanese have never touched so many planes at one time to deal with our Jin Sui army!"

Chief Yan's face suddenly became unpleasant.

The Japanese attached so much importance to the Eighth Route Army, and moreover, it was a subordinate unit of the Eighth Route Army.

Thinking of the attitude of the Japanese towards themselves and the Jin Suijun, I have a sense of desolation in my heart. ”

But as a politician, he quickly calmed himself down: "How many people did the Japanese Kato Division lose when attacking Linfen City!" ”

"At least three thousand!" The chief of staff replied.

"These Japanese are so useless!" Chief Yan's brows furrowed again, and he cursed.

"With so many troops, as well as aircraft reinforcements, they didn't even take Linfen City!"

"You can't take Linfen City during the day, and you don't have to think about it at night!"

"The night is the world of the Eighth Route Army, and after dark for a while, the Japanese outside Linfen City may not wait for them to attack Linfen City, and the Eighth Route Army hiding near them will all come out and take the initiative to attack them!"

"Sir, the front line is urgent~" Suddenly, a communications staff officer rushed in, with a shocked expression on his face.

"The Eighth Route Army in Linfen City began a counteroffensive, they used at least a hundred guns of various calibers to counterattack, and the Japanese artillery position was destroyed after only a few minutes!"

"Our observation posts on the front line report that Linfen City is full of Eighth Route Army ......"

"The Japanese army that is attacking Linfen City has been surrounded by them, and there are crossfires everywhere outside Linfen City, and the Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army have become a ......"

Chief Yan couldn't sit still, so he sat up from his seat and stared at the communications staff officer and asked rhetorically.

"What do you say? Say it again! ”

After the communications staff officer recounted the contents of the telegram with nervousness, Chief Yan had a very shocked expression on his face.

After a long time, he replied: "The appetite of the Eighth Route Army is too great...... If I'm not mistaken, they're going to eat the devil Kato's division! ”

"During the day, I was still wondering how the Eighth Route Army learned that the Kato Division did not plan to go north."

"Now it seems that I was too worried!"

"The appetite of the Eighth Route Army is too great, whether they know the news that the Kato Division is no longer going north, they will defend Linfen City!"

"By defending Linfen City, a large number of Kato Division's troops will be consumed!"

"As soon as the devils leave, they can counterattack, attack inside and outside, and kill the Kato Division!"

Both the chief of staff and the communications staff were shocked by Chief Yan's judgment and looked incredulous.

The chief of staff directly asked: "Commander, are you worrying too much, does the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army have such a big appetite?" ”

"Even if the Japanese army attacked Linfen City in the afternoon and lost more than 3,000 people, there were still nearly 10,000 Japanese troops outside Linfen City."

"The new regiment of the Eighth Route Army has such a big appetite to kill 10,000 little devils in one night!"

"The new regiment is only a regiment-level establishment, even if the Eighth Route Army privately expands a lot of people, more than 10,000 people will reach the sky!"

Chief Yan shook his head and replied, "You wait, it won't be long before new news comes back from the front!" ”

Less than five minutes after Chief Yan said this, sure enough, another staff officer rushed in with a shocked expression.

"Is there new news from the front!" The chief of staff asked anxiously.

The staff officer hurriedly replied: "Yes, sir......"

"After the Eighth Route Army took out the Japanese artillery positions, it concentrated artillery fire on the infantry that was attacking outside the city."

"A multi-wing of more than 4,000 Japanese troops suffered heavy losses under the artillery counterattack of the Eighth Route Army, and they were also counterattacked by the defending troops of the Eighth Route Army, and suffered heavy losses, and in the end only half of the troops retreated!"

"There is also the Eighth Route Army attacking around Linfen City, the firepower is very strong, and there are a large number of mortars to provide artillery cover!"

"If it weren't for the observation post to determine that they were the Eighth Route Army, they would almost be regarded as the elite of the Japanese army!"

"The alert troops deployed by the Japanese army on the periphery were all crushed at the first touch, and they were killed without even having a chance to escape!"

"According to the reconnaissance, there are less than 7,000 people left in the Japanese Kato Division, and they are surrounded by the Eighth Route Army in an area of less than five kilometers south of Linfen City!"

"Also, the Japanese have put on a stubborn posture and are digging trenches and building fortifications in large numbers!"

Chief Yan had just judged this result, and he still couldn't help but exclaim.

"It's too fast, it's only been how long it has been, and two or three thousand Japanese are gone, it's so shocking!"

Then he replied in the affirmative: "These Japanese are finished!" ”

"The purpose of the Eighth Route Army is very simple, first to kill the artillery of the Japanese, and then to kill them little by little!"

"Chief of Staff, you all overestimate the combat effectiveness of the Japanese!"

"Today's Japanese army is not the Japanese army of a few years ago. At that time, the little devils were all veterans and had strong combat effectiveness. Many units of the Japanese army today are units that have been supplemented with a few new recruits, and no matter how strong the combat effectiveness is, it cannot be compared to before! ”

"Also, the reason why the Japanese were able to match on the battlefield was that aircraft and artillery played a very important role. Once they lose these two things, I tell you, the most elite guard division of our Jin Sui Army will be able to single-handedly pick them up one-on-one! ”

"Now the Kato division has no planes, no artillery. And the Eighth Route Army has a large number of artillery, what kind of ending do you say they can have in addition to being killed! ”

"Why don't they break through, there may be a glimmer of life in the breakthrough!" The chief of staff asked subconsciously.

"Breaking through is also death, and breaking through is the ending that the Eighth Route Army wants to see the most!" Chief Yan replied.

Then he stared at the chief of staff and sighed: "You have overestimated both the combat effectiveness of the Japanese and the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army, and you will suffer a big loss in the future!" ”
